As we continue our week on God being our Father, we look today at how God encourages us. There is nothing like an encouraging word from the Father when we’re feeling low and discouraged. Sometimes life can be daunting, and our good Father knows just what to say when we need to hear it most. If you’re feeling discouraged today, I pray the Lord speaks courage to your weary heart and strengthens your weary bones to keep running the race set before you.

Our Scripture for today comes from Romans 8:31, and today's worship is The Garden by Kari Jobe.

Faith doesn’t happen on its own. It’s a byproduct of time spent experiencing the faithfulness of our God. It’s a gift given to us by the Giver of good gifts, himself. 

 

It was a supernatural faith that allowed Paul to sing even while in chains. It was supernatural faith that allowed Peter to proclaim the gospel, even unto death. And it’s supernatural faith that will carry you to and through the greatest gospel opportunities in front of you. 

 

We pray our printed devotionals, Faith and Trust, help people like you experience the life changing reality that faith and trust have on your everyday life.  

 

With Faith you’ll: 

 

• Discover a Biblical framework for living faithfully
• Study powerful moments of God’s faithfulness in scripture
• Tear down personal strongholds in your life where you struggle with faith
• Develop a lifestyle of faith, that weathers the storms of life

 

And every dollar you give today goes to help more people like you experience the nearness and love of our God. 

 

Everything changes when we learn to trust and become filled with faith in our good, good God. Get your copy at supportfirst15.org!
